Express Entry is one of the most popular Canadian immigration pathways for foreign nationals with skilled work experience. It’s an application management system, which is designed to accept and process PR applications under the following economic immigration programs:

• Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP)
• Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP)
• Canadian Experience Class (CEC)

Candidates who enter the Express Entry pool are awarded a score and a rank using the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). The scores are given out of 1200 based, and those who are among highest ranking candidates get an invitation to apply for Canada PR in an upcoming Express Entry draw.

As mentioned, to get an ITA, you must be among the highest-ranking candidates. Therefore, you must aim to grab maximum points under CRS.

To help you with this, we have come up with top-six options that’ll help you boost your overall CRS scores.

Let’s have a look at those top six ways.

Apply for provincial nomination

With a provincial nomination in your account, you get 600 additional points towards your overall CRS scores. There are a lot of Canadian provinces that run Express Entry aligned PNP streams. You must show that you are interested in moving to a province or territory. If any province finds you eligible, you’ll get a notification of interest in your Express Entry account.

Re-take language test

Another way to instantly increase your CRS score is to aim for a better IELTS score, i.e., up to CLB 9 or above. It’ll help you get up to 260 points under language ability. You can also claim additional points for French language ability.

Gain more work experience

While applying via Express Entry, your skilled work experience plays a crucial role in the selection process. If you gain more than 8 years of skilled work experience in an occupation listed under National Occupational Classification (NOC) skill level O, A or B, you can claim more points.

Claim spousal points

If you have a spouse, you may claim more points, if:

• Your spouse retakes a language test or submits an ECA report (educational credential assessment) for any post-secondary education.
• Your spouse is a stronger applicant than you. Therefore, you can make him/her a principal applicant.
• Both of you are strong applicants. You both can submit Express Entry profiles and list each other as accompanying members. This will double your chances of getting an ITA for a Canada PR visa.
